3 Note

NOTICE
Failure to observe this Technical Instruction could result in contamination which could sub-
sequently cause massive damage to the engine!

The Technical Instructions listed below must also be observed:

▪ General conditions – Operation and maintenance, TI 1100-0111 → Dealing with cleanliness.
▪ Checklist for engine repair and overhaul, TI 2102-0020 → Ensuring faultless work when carrying out deep
interventions - especially those relating to the clean oil circuit - on engines.
▪ Storage and handling of fresh oil for GE Jenbacher gas engines, TI 1000-0099L → handling engine oil.

4 Definition of clean oil circuit

The following areas/parts are in direct contact with clean oil:
▪ Cylinder head
▪ Camshaft including camshaft bearings
▪ Crankcase bores
▪ Oil-carrying bores and ducts in various cover plates
▪ Oil bores and ducts in the crankcase
▪ Main bearings
▪ Big-end bearings
▪ Connecting rod
▪ Crankshaft
▪ Valve gear - tappets, push rods, rocker arms, etc.
▪ Oil supply lines
▪ Turbocharger assembly and console
▪ Oil filter and oil filter assembly
▪ Piston cooling nozzles

5 Handling newly supplied spare parts that affect the clean oil circuit
Parts that have a direct or indirect effect on the clean oil circuit must be handled with extreme care. Before
starting work on the engine, you should first check that the parts are in a good and usable condition and then
repack them properly to protect them until they are actually used. Before installing the parts, give them a visual
inspection (if necessary, using an endoscope) and where appropriate check them by feel.
Dirt, burrs and other possible contaminants could cause a malfunction. In such cases, you should always check
whether it is possible to rectify the situation. Otherwise, you should consult the GE Jenbacher Helpdesk
department. You should also always report defective shipments so that they can be improved in future.

Cleanliness During Service Work Involving Clean Oil Parts

6 Four-eyes principle
All work involving clean oil must be subject to the four-eyes principle in order to prevent defects or
contaminants from being overlooked.

7 Covers and protecting the clean oil circuit

All areas of the engine in which clean oil parts or clean oil zones are opened must be covered immediately.
Suitable plastic or rubber covers and residue-free adhesive tape can be used as coverings.
The crank pins on the crankshaft must be handled in a particularly sensitive way. They must be covered as
soon as they are removed from the connecting rod. You are recommended to use the official GE Jenbacher
plastic covers for this. If they are not available, use an alternative, fibre-free material.
Irrespective of the type of cover used, you must ensure that it has been cleaned to remove all residues.
Generally, rotating metal brushes should not be used in the engine room.
Other rotary cleaning methods are not permitted in the engine room as cleanliness cannot be guaranteed, due
to particles flying around. Where it is not possible to remove the component to be cleaned and taken to a
separate room and, at the same time, a different cleaning method is not possible, the utmost care must be
taken to cover it exactly to prevent dirt and foreign bodies from getting into the clean oil system. This rule does
not apply to rotating metal brushes.

8 Handling main and connecting rod bearing shells

Do not wear safety gloves when handling main and connecting rod bearings. You are exceptionally allowed
to take off your gloves, but only for the direct handling of these bearing shells. This includes inspecting,
lubricating and inserting the bearing shells.
You must put on the safety gloves again for all other work.

9 Cleaning material to be used

It is important to use the correct cleaning material. "Cleaning material" means direct cleaning material such as
cleaning cloths but also includes indirect cleaning material such as cup brushes, rotating metal brushes and
emery paper. Chemicals are not counted as cleaning material and are dealt with separately.
These materials must be available on site for work on the engine at 10,000 hour service intervals and for
repairs. Where these materials are not obtainable on site, you can order them from GE Jenbacher as part
number 1210145. They can be precisely those listed below or equivalent materials.
